St CUNEGUNDA

Christian Saint

Also known as CUNIGUNDE-OF-LUXEMBOURG

Patron Saint of Luxembourg and Poland

Wife of Henry, Duke of Bavaria. They were both devout and he founded Bamburg Cathedral.

Being devout did not stop Henry from suspecting his wife of infidelity, and she was made to walk barefoot over fifteen red-hot plowshares to prove her innocence. Which she did — there was not so much as a tiny blister.

After his death she went to live an even more pious life in a monastery she had founded in Hesse.

We are often asked about mythology merchandise. Do we sell St Cunegunda graphic novels, books, video or role-playing games (RPG)? To purchase such goodies we suggest you try Amazon, Ebay or other reputable online stores. For official Godchecker merch please visit our God Shop where a wide range of items are available to buy.
